Community Endowment Fund Application

The Junior League of Kansas City awards grants for financial assistance to community agencies in the five-county Kansas City metropolitan area (Jackson, Clay, and Platte counties in Missouri; Wyandotte and Johnson counties in Kansas) in response to critical needs. These needs may include, but are not limited to, unbudgeted expenses, sudden loss of funding, or a new program. Some examples of past funded grants are an air conditioning failure, bed bug problems in a homeless shelter, and weather disaster damage.

The maximum grant is $7,500.
Grant requests are considered on a first-come, first-served basis, based on availability of funds.
We have a rolling review process that typically awards grants every other month.
